Hi! New user of both Mac and Parallels, love the MB Pro retina a lot so far. I do have to run some of my telescope control software through a serial port. I use the Keyspan USA 49WG. I get an error message when installing the driver. I am on Win 8.1. Any troubleshooting suggestions?
Hi WayneHixson, Please make sure the Parallels Tools are installed in your Windows 8.1 Virtual Machine. To install the Parallels Tools please follow the steps as suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/115835 Thanks, Manoj.
Manoj, the Tools are installed but didn't make a difference. I found out from the maker of the adapter, Keyspan, that their product has problems running in a VM. I got a GEARM adapter based on the FTDI chipset and it works right out of the box. Problem solved! Thanks
